Arwen’s Fame Grows

Wednesday, December 19th, 2007

Earlier this year FW Moderator Arwen took the brave step of leaving her home and life in sunny California and moved to Swansea. Living ‘the dream’ in the slightly less sunny climate of South Wales she has begun her Welsh Language degree course. Her fame continues to spread throughout the educational and social […]

Welsh People

Wednesday, December 12th, 2007

Well, here we are - my first Christmas in Wales and I have to reiterate: The Welsh people are positively the most warm and welcoming people in the world.
I know, I know, I’ve said this before. But it really is true! Case in point.
I’ve met several of my neighbors and […]

Gavin - Back in the News

Tuesday, December 11th, 2007

And here I thought he was being such a good boy. He seemed a changed man since becoming a Dad! He was right back on his game in top form and then he behaves like a juvenile delinquent on the train?
And my question for the night? If he didn’t do it, why […]

Swansea at Christmas

Wednesday, December 5th, 2007

The Christmas spirit is all around the town now. Banners hanging about giving the dates of special seasonal events, Christmas lights and light pole banners throughout the city and Christmas trees decorating homes everywhere.
And with school winding down for the semester and getting ready for a long holiday break, I found myself […]

Milkwood Jam

Saturday, November 17th, 2007

We’ve a new club here in Swansea called Milkwood Jam and I went for the first time this afternoon to hear one of my favorite bands, Brigyn, perform live. It’s located in the midst of the shopping quadrant downtown and a very enjoyable place to be. They’ve good acoustics, and a second floor […]

Pobol y Cwm

Sunday, November 4th, 2007

I can’t figure this out. I spent the afternoon listening to the Ospreys vs. London Irish on S4C. A fairly good game for a slaughter and the commentary was all in Welsh. Mind you, I don’t understand a whole lot of Welsh yet, but I did manage to get a bit of […]

Autumn

Saturday, November 3rd, 2007

I went for a drive today, it was a beautiful autumn day - crisp and sunny - perfect traveling weather. With Radio Cymru playing the Blues EDF Rygbi match (they didn’t win) I headed out toward Carmarthenshire with the intent to visit Llanelli. I never made it to Llanelli, ran out of […]

Ray Gravell’s Passing

Thursday, November 1st, 2007

I’m sure you’ve all heard by this time that one of Welsh Rugby’s great players, Ray Gravell, has passed on. He died yesterday (Wednesday) after coming down ill whilst in Spain.
Like everyone else who follows rugby, I want to express how much he’ll be missed and, on behalf of all of us at ForumWales, […]

Weird Wales?

Wednesday, October 31st, 2007

Here’s some fun from the Evening Post for Halloween. And you can be a part of it. Know any weird websites? If so, drop them a note and they may add it to their own list. And they’ve found some really fun stuff.
Like animations? Remember the 60’s? Check out […]

Killay

Friday, October 26th, 2007

One of the perils of growing up on the West Coast of America is you tend to go stir crazy if you don’t go outside at least 27 times a day. So in spite of the gloom and cold today I found myself in a state of pacing and decided to go for a […]

Well I’ve Done It….

Tuesday, October 23rd, 2007

I’ve bought my first car in Wales and I am absolutely chuffed to bits! It was a semi-new experience because let’s face it, buying a car pretty much entails the same things regardless of where you do it. But it was quite fun to be given the opportunity to pick my license plate […]
